School!

For most of us, this is the last semester of school. For those of us, who are not going for further studies, this could be the end of school life. When I say, end of school life, it doesn't mean that we stopped learning, it's just that we stop paying lecturers lot of money and we stop skipping lectures. Well, not that I had skipped lots of lectures.

Strangely, for the entire 3 years plus, most of us (at least it's true for me, maybe not so for others) dreaded school, hate exam (I still don't love exams), eager to leave the lecture theatre ASAP, etc etc... at these "awful" 3 years, we suddenly LOVE schooling, we don't wish to go out and work... we ENJOY the flexibility of school life. Not having to wake up at 6am everyday, dread your feet to work, trying to understand the MEANING of work and looking forward to 5pm (if you're lucky) or maybe just the end of work (which could end at 10pm etc). And becos we are so-called Professionals, we don't receive overtime pay for working. It's probably ENJOYMENT if you appreciate your job, and it's TORTURE if you don't understand what's all this shit you're going thru'.

In short, I'm enjoying whatever is left of my undergraduate years! even though much of the stuff that I do, isn't exactly the most exciting stuff unless .......

Anyway, ENOUGH of all these. So, I'm in my last semester. I'm hoping to graduate in May. Wear that square thing, take photo and hopefully, I'm off for holidays. Unlike most people, I should be going with my parents! haha I actually don't mind that... AND YES, MISS LIM JW, I'm going for grad trip with my parents! haha, anything wrong with that?

Where? I don't know. I don't even know if I'm going. It's jus a plan. After that, I'll be studying hard for one month... (if you're interested to know what, just msn me. it's a secret! haha) and then I shld be starting work in July. WISH me luck k? I need all the luck I can get.

Anyway, I'm taking some module about international politics economy. And you know what, it's rather sad that at THIS AGE, I know absolutely nothing about all these stuff. All the politics, economics, finance, etc... Somemore, I'm not so good in all these. But it's interesting. Unlike most, if not ALL, engineering modules dont actually require you to think in depth. ALL the shit about learning how to analyse in ENGINEERING modules, it's probably true to a certain extent. I honestly believe that ARTS students analyse issues more than we do and think MORE than we do. Well, engineering students are probably more versed with analysing NUMBERS and data, which is good also lar. So, if I'm a JC student all over again, I probably will be quite keen to choose ARTS instead of engineering. Somehow, I feel like I have to use more of my small peanut brain to think.

Ah, all these things about science and maths. I remember not considering ARTS, BIZ at all before entering undergraduate. And I think for some reasons, I believed that there's not much career opportunities and stuff like that... I must be stupid to think that way.

Anyway, I met one of my old friends yesterday! It's pleasant to see him again! But honestly, I didn't know what to talk to him when I met him, cos we haven't seen or talk to each other for... 7 or 8 years?! Sometimes, it's scary when you think of it. Whoa, so many years. Are we really old? It's not the age or number of years that scares me. Rather, it's the thought that so many years have past without me knowing. It's as though, I've done nothing useful or meaningful these few years. It's almost like, I'm wasting my life?! that's scary. Does it feel like, you're just a zombie .. going about doing your routine stuff.. wake up, brush teeth, eat, go school, talk rubbish, go out, go home, rest and relax, read, and then sleep. Occassionally, you travel around the world, explore new places, indulge in sinful stuff, and stuff like that. But that's so NOT interesting. HAHA... how many of us actually get to spend 30 years with chimpanzee to study and understand their behaviour? Those people are (OR she is) really really interested in what she's doing. Probably not for money...

blah blah blah... I'm lost in my thoughts... therefore, I'm lost for words. Hence, THE END.

First post of 2008!

Hello everybody! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Wow, it's been a while since I blogged. (: JX and I seem to take it in turns writing a few posts in a row. Lol. (: I think we should change the blog name to thefantastictwo.blogspot.com. Hahaha. Well well, so it's another year and with the start of the new term, we are officially J7. It is so freakin scary la! We are now even older than what Daniel was when we were J1. lol. Anyway, just hoping and praying that this new year will be so so so much better than the last and just completely packed full with blessings. Take care ok, everybody?

By the way, to the other F3: did you all receive my lovely Christmas cards?? (: Jing, I received your parcel today and my housemate was so jealous that I had post all the way from Japan! Hahaha. I loved the stuff inside.. did you really put it together yourself?

Wonder how all your Christmases have been ladies and gentlemen... no more foam parties in town I hope? haha... I spent a good time with a family from church in Liverpool... it was as traditionally British as it could get... and cos they had 3 under-5s in the house, it was even more exciting with tonnes and tonnes of toys for presents. (: I've not uploaded any photos onto my computer yet, but when I get round to doing it I'll post a few pics of the lovely boys.

Hope everyone is doing well, studying hard, enjoying life. Take care guys and girls. You are missed.

Love,

Lee hom's wife-- yes, I've fallen in love with him all over again. LOL. pardon me.

p.s. JX: hope your fyp writeup is finished!
